Broad-band radio polarimetry of disc galaxies and AGN with KAT-7
(Oxford University Press, 2020-10-24)We report broad-band (1.2–1.9 GHz) radio continuum observations at arcminute resolutions of two nearby disc galaxies, NGC 1808 and NGC 1097, and four active galactic nuclei (AGN)-powered radio sources: PKS B1934−638, PKS ... -
The evolution of the low-frequency radio AGN population to z 1.5 in the ELAIS N1 field
(Advance Access publication, 2020-11-13)We study the cosmic evolution of radio sources out to z 1.5 using a GMRT 610 MHz survey covering ∼1.86 deg2 of the ELAIS N1 field with a minimum/median rms noise 7.1/19.5 μJy beam−1 and an angular resolution of 6 arcsec. ... -
MIGHTEE: Total intensity radio continuum imaging and the COSMOS/XMM-LSS Early Science fields
(University of the Western Cape, 2022)MIGHTEE is a galaxy evolution survey using simultaneous radio continuum, spectropolarimetry, and spectral line observations from the South African MeerKAT telescope. When complete, the survey will image ∼20 deg2 over the ... -
Simulating a full-sky high resolution Galactic synchrotron spectral index map using neural networks
(Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2023)We present a model for the full-sky diffuse Galactic synchrotron spectral index with an appropriate level of spatial structure for a resolution of 56 arcmin (to match the resolution of the Haslam 408 MHz data). Observational ... -
VLA imaging of the XMM-LSS/VIDEO deep field at 1–2 GHz
(Oxford University Press, 2020-06-20)Modern radio telescopes are routinely reaching depths where normal star-forming galaxies are the dominant observed population. Realizing the potential of radio as a tracer of star formation and black hole activity over ...
